A job is a good job because
workers fight to make it one –
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time
with a tremendous whack.

Yes I am on a Crusade ...I have seen and Heard many stories while up at the convention and as one person said " When are the Teamsters going to show up ?
The Teamsters are here ! We are Teamsters We as individuals voted on it . The Union Is not just about one man or one claim or one argument , We are a Family of Brothers and Sisters bound by the unique proposition that TOGETHER We can make a difference in Our Company and OUR Futures for Safety , Security, Wages, Benefits . Many of us don't understand the process . It takes Time .... It sometimes takes Years to move an inch of Sand and Decades to move a Boulder . We have some of the most Highly Intelligent and Motivated Group of Individuals on Our side right now in The BLET .
We " the Blet membership " is not some great big corporation and not a mom and pop store either . We all are a Little Piece of the Puzzle . Just because you lost a claim or didn't get a job or didn't get a phone call returned or whatever is not a reason to abandon You Brothers. Really is it ? Things in life seldom always turn out the way we want them to unless we fight. Unless We Fight Hard ! Unless We Band Together ......NOW IS THE TIME !!! NOW !!! It's time to go to the Mattresses and Fight for everything We believe in . Fight for Your Future and Fight for Your Families Future . WE FEW , WE HAPPY FEW, WE BAND OF BROTHERS !!!
How Do We Fight ? STOP THE RUMORS . " A rumor flies around the world as the truth is just putting it's shoes on ..." It's time to Stop the Rumors and Build on Truth. Attend Union meetings when you can , The wheels of change move slow but They will move faster with more People Pushing on them . If you have a Problem with a board member Call Me ... I Guarantee We can Work through anything Together !
United We Stand - Divided We Fall
